Kees, this is not a rare occurrence in a BN1, stop and take a look at
the BN1 front wheel cylinder layout. If the brakes are not de adjusted
there is an air pocket in the wheel cylinders above the height of the
bleed screw. The air will be very difficult to bleed out as it is
trapped. I have advised many to do this and they found an immediate
improvement in the bleeding process and improvement in pedal firmness.

As remarked before, it is generally a good idea to adjust back
your drum brakes and push back the calliper pistons (using e few
small wedges between pads and discs) to minimise the volume in
the brake cylinders and callipers if the bleed nipples are
positioned in such a way that air can remain trapped in the
cylinders or callipers, although this is a fairly rare
occurrence.<br>
